[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 6223977, member: 11697"] I understand where you're coming from. I adore the 2e PS material to such an extent there's a certain comfort in having it there without running the risk of someone with legal rights to the setting doing something horrible (like defining the Lady of Pain's nature - and shame for the LN alignment that was in 3e's Planar Handbook) or the Spellplague comes to Sigil, something like that. Yet at the same time oh man oh man I'd love to be able to see more from Cook, Cook, McComb, Vallese, et al. And I'd personally give a lung to write more within the setting, adding to the little bits here and there in Dragon and Dungeon I managed to do in 3e and one in 4e (the 4e Demonomicon article on Shemeshka the Marauder of course is using a Planescape character but I would very much hesitate to denote it as part of PS canon, likewise with other 4e material incorporating elements from PS including Sigil - optional since while some of it just didn't make sense in 4e's cosmology/tropes/history forced onto it, some of it like a lot of Rob Schwalb's work was done very well). Conflicting emotions there. Depends almost entirely on who would be working on it, who is on the design team setting ground rules for them, and how well both groups knew the setting and did their homework on it in order to treat the earlier material properly.
